创世记 35:15-19 CUVS

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 35:1-15

Bethel revisited. I. JACOB 'S JOURNEY TO BETHEL . 1. The occasion of the journey. The crime of his sons had made it necessary that Jacob should leave Shechem and its neighborhood; but it is doubtful if in the circumstances Jacob would have thought of going to Bethel without an express invitation from Heaven, which, however, he got. 2. The object of the journey. This was stated by the Divine communication which Jacob received to be the fulfillment of the vow which... read more

God with us. Jacob's settlement with his family at Bethel. This was a solemn renewal of the covenant to the patriarch at the end of his pilgrimage. It was the occasion for a new dedication of himself and his household by vows and offerings, and by separation of themselves from all heathen things and thoughts around the newly-erected altar El-Bethel . I. REVELATION the basis of faith. God went up from him after he had spoken with him, and there he set up a pillar of stone, and... read more

And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Bethel. This name was first given after the dream vision of the ladder ( Genesis 28:19 ); already on this occasion it had been changed into El-beth-el ( Genesis 35:7 ); now its old name is reimposed. HOMILETICS read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 35:16

EXPOSITION And they journeyed —not in opposition to the Divine commandment ( Genesis 35:1 ), which did not enjoin a permanent settlement at Bethel, but in accordance probably with his own desire, if not also Heaven's counsel, to proceed to Mamre to visit Isaac— from Bethel (southwards in the direction of Hebron); and there was but a little way (literally, there was yet a space of land; probably a few furlongs (Murphy), about four English miles (Gerlach). The Vulgate translates,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 35:16-29

These family records mingle well with the story of God's grace. The mothers " Ben-oni " is the father's " Benjamin ." Out of the pain and the bereavement sometimes comes the consolation. A strange blending of joy and sorrow is the tale of human love. But there is a higher love which may draw out the pure stream of peace and calm delight from that impure fountain. Jacob and Esau were separated in their lives, but they met at their father's grave. Death is a terrible divider, but a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 35:17

And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor (literally, in her laboring hard in her parturition ) , that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also —literally, for also this to thee a son; meaning either that she would certainly have strength to bring forth another son, or, what is more probable, that the child was already born, and that it was a son. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 35:18

And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing ,—literally, in the departing of her soul; not into annihilation, but into another (a disembodied) state of existence ( vide Genesis 25:3 )— for she died (a pathetic commentary on Genesis 30:1 ), that she called his name Ben-oni ("son of my sorrow,'' as a memorial of her anguish in bearing him, and of her death because of him): but his father called him Benjamin —"son of my right hand;" either "the son of my strength" (Clericus,... read more

And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem —or House of Bread, about seven miles south of Jerusalem. It afterwards became the birthplace of David ( 1 Samuel 16:18 ) and of Christ ( Matthew 2:1 ). The assertion that this clause is a later interpolation (Lunge) is unfounded (Kalisch, Kurtz). read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 35:18

Genesis 35:18. As her soul was departing בצאת נפשׁה , when her soul was going out, namely, of the body: an argument this of the soul’s immortality, especially if compared with Ecclesiastes 12:7; from which places collated, we learn both whence it goes, and whither it goes. She called his name Benoni The son of my sorrow. Thus, by her own confession , the gaining her desire became her sorrow: a lively instance this of the folly of inordinately desiring any thing temporal: the object... read more
